Blazers @ Clippers 1/1/2012 - Game Thread

Good grief, finish at the rim.

 

[EGame]

Unbelievable. The Clippers are playing like shit and we can't make up the deficit. The Clips seem content to jack up 20 foot jumpers and we can't seem to take advantage. Wow! Just wow!

Um so do we. You see anyone attacking?

 

[VenomXL]

They're kicking our asses with Blake taking a nice rest on the bench.

They are playing shitty ... kind of puts thing in perspective.

Missed opportunities

 

[julius]

can we just simulate the rest of the game so we don't have to watch or listen to it?

Blazers can't hit the broad side of a barn.

True. Shooters can't shoot and Lamarcus seems to have forgotten how to play inside. Hopefully these are just symptoms of a lack of a training camp. If not, this could be a very long season indeed.

I'd settle for a shot.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Missed opportunities

Nah, not really. It's just run-of-the-mill shitty play.

 

[Mediocre Man]

I really hope Nate is screaming to get to the rim right here. Hopefully they don't settle for a long jump shot out of the time out

 

[Mediocre Man]

It went in, but boo

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Crawchuck killing us tonight.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Crawchuck killing us tonight.

Careful with that. It upsets some people

 

[EGame]

Please someone teach these guys to make a layup.

 

[VenomXL]

So many missed layups.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Not even looking to push it until that play right there

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Fuck, Blazers are never going to be elite with an offense like this. Time to go, Nate.

Layups? Those are balls they should be dunking inside!

Were you always this smart?

 

[Nikolokolus]

I could really give two fucks about the layups -- missing those mostly comes down to bad luck -- I'm more concerned with the shitty ball movement.

The ball movement has been poor in every game so far this year

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Blazers will win this game!

I wish it was because they still don't have their game legs, but they're all a bunch of softies when it comes to hammering it home instead of doing layups (although LaMarcus is good at it).

 

[Mediocre Man]

Blazers will win this game!

They certainly could. The Clips are playing like shit

 

[chris_in_pdx]

They certainly could. The Clips are playing like shit

The clips are absolutely giving the Blazers every chance to take control of this game.

 

[VenomXL]

This is some ugly basketball on both sides.

 

[B-Roy]

The turnovers....

And they aren't even coming from running. Just shitty passing.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Damn, nice post up LMA.

 

[Nikolokolus]

You'll get no arguments from me.

 

[VenomXL]

Our defensive rotations are really bad tonight.
